this quote is so important to the underlying theme of how characters will grow and change in The Casebook of Elisha Grey:
The ultimate touchstone of friendship is not improve-ment, neither of the other nor of the self:
the ultimate touchstone is witness, the privilege of having been seen by some-one and the equal privilege of being granted the sight of the essence of another, to have walked with them and to have believed in them, and sometimes just to have accompanied them for however brief a span, on a journey impossible to accomplish alone.
- David Whyte
Elisha Grey, Kiara Ptolmai, Kamay Pellay, Ishmael Endymion and Chiron will be called upon to be witness to one another's challenges, trials, and suffering.
Sometimes, science fiction is the genre that opens our minds to a way of being we have in our modern time and daily rounds, sadly, forgotten.
